Zona show

[HiDefFisherman]

What really bums me out about all of this, Zona and Madfisherman, is that the original was canceled. Some may be too young to remember, but there was a show that actually got my wife interested in bass fishing for a while, the host was and is one of the most enjoyed fishing personalities around.... can any of you guess???


Think Red hair, beard and a legally changed name to Fish... LOL

Yep, old Fish Fishburn had the best of all three of the fun to watch shows. I loved his intro... where he says "I'm Bob Cobb... and you're not!" LOL

Hey 12volt... I've got an idea for a TV show. Maybe we can hook up and produce it???

Fish Fishburne was absolutely crazy funny, loved his show. Some of you guys are waaaaaaaaaaay to serious. Most of my fishing partners and I have fun in the boat. If it's not fun why go??? If I get tired I may start singing to you while fishing with me and I can belt out some tunes, yea right, lol. Keep it fun fellas life is serious enough isn't it, Geeze.

Hey Mark,
It's just the beginning...the Classic will be on before we know it and all the Keyboard Producers will pounce on the inadequate coverage and terrible story lines! Not speaking for anyone but myself on this but.....I think that my biggest thrills in this sport comes from what I do or who I go with not what some Sponsored Pro does.
They are good for the sport but I could give a darn what the T.V. coverage is.
Fish was the original! Team Grandma!!!

LMAO... Mark, me too!!! But once I start singing, my partner wants to leave, and I lose another fishing buddy!!!!

I have a saying I live by...

"IF it's not fun, I won't keep doing it for long."

That includes any kind of work, no matter how much it may pay.

Life it too short.

To look at it another way, I recently read an article from an ex-UK basketball player who played ball in Europe after his NBA career. He said that in Europe they all say Americans live to work, where in Europe, they only work to live. He said you can't even get a coffee to go. You have to get a cup, sit down and enjoy it. He said it could take 2 hours for a cup because of the conversation.

I've really gelled out in the last few years, and even though I only rake in about 1/3 of what I used to earn, I am retired. Lovin' it too!!! And still young enough to enjoy it.

I certainly wish the same for everyone on here. My next adventure that we are looking forward to is relocation. Maybe to the Southwest. I'll have to learn some new fishing. I've been to Pheonix many times on business, and you would be surprised how many boats I saw down there. I talked with some of the anglers, and they fish up in the mountains in the more "highland" type lakes. I'm also talking about the big bass rigs. I also like NM, and maybe could learn to fish in the Rio Grande. Either way, it will be awhile before it happens, so I'll be happy with our KY lakes and our close by TN and AL lakes too.
